    At the quiet end of town, but close to (as in just steps away) several beachfront restaurants. Corinne was a gracious host and helped us book our airport taxi. We enjoyed the resident cats and dogs, though Gato Blanco only wishes to be petted on her terms. Be sure to ask her first 😄

    I went around the holidays and it was quite noisy around the village. I started in the tower room and moved to the room with A/C which has much better sound insulation and is more removed from the street. WiFi was not very reliable but that’s almost everywhere in Zipolite- great opportunity to unplug

    The host was wonderful and the property is unique. I loved the attention to details, creative design and homey feel of being inside the compound. Everything is made from natural materials and exudes serenity. Being just a few minutes walk from the ocean was wonderful too.

    Please the only thing why we won’t put a 10: could you just make the shower a bit better? Pressure…. Same for the sink…

    We loved it! Forget about standard star system… it’s something absolutely different. Almost a tree house, terrace, hammocks. It’s backpacking ++++ completely in the spirit of Zipolite!

    There are quite some mosquitos in the area. Thankfully the beds are equipped with good mosquito nets but somehow we didn't seal ours properly at the entrances so we got a couple of stings. Wifi was not great. It should be noted that if you want to pay with credit card you'll be charged an additional 5% - so make sure to bring enough cash to avoid the surcharge.

    Castillo Oasis is a lovingly custom built "castle" created with architectural elements of the area (such as thatch roofs and wooden terraces). There are nice details all over the place, such as gemstone or sea shells in the walls. The whole place creates a super relaxed atmosphere. The beach is just a 2min walk away and you have restaurants and a small shop right outside the door. The noise level was OK, no loud bars or anything that kept us up at night. The owner is super friendly and very eager to help with tips around your trip. She also helped us book a whale watching tour where we saw dolphins, whales and turtles. I can recommend the place and would stay there again.

    Nothing.

    The owner Corrina is lovely, so helpful and friendly and will put herself out to help you. The room was really nice, large with lots of storage space, light and airy with opening windows and fly screens. The bed had a large mosquito net and there was seating and hammocks outside. The WiFi was good and there is even a fridge for guests use. The animals who live there are a delight. Everywhere is kept very clean. You are just steps away from the beach, shops and restaurants. Water pressure was good. We wanted to stay longer but she was fully booked.

    Nothing really. I enjoyed staying there a lot eventually though I’m a little picky.

    The owner, Cori, is super nice and allowed me to check in earlier without any problems. The hotel is super close to the beach and there is a store right in front which is very convenient. The place has a very nice vibe 100% recommended if traveling solo.

    Because of the location, on the second row of the houses counting from the beach, it was less breezy, unfortunately. It is a better idea, of course depending on the available budget, to book a room on the second floor, that is a little more expensive but has the private bathroom inside.

    The, owner, Corrina, was very helpful with orientation to the beach and other useful places. The place had a lovely natural garden. The efforts to produce an ecologically-friendly infrastructure were appreciated.

    The room we booked promised ocean view but in reality we could only see 5 degrees, a thin slice of ocean from our balcony :( the pictures of the room were not accurate anymore :( The second room we had did not have any ventilation for the bathroom so it got smelly at times :(

    quiet, fresh rooms without need for AC, general vibe was nice, great location, friendly staff, easy to get around

    There was a fair amount of noise from traffic, but no noise from the discos. Weekday nights are more quiet, but gets a bit more busy on the weekend. Just remember, that the rooms are very fresh and open air, which allows the local noises in.

    Nice space with a large covered porch area. There was an extra futon sofa and a hammock in the room! The owner was wonderful and kind and very helpful. Her pets are gentle and sweet and make no noise! I could hear the waves all day and night from my bed. The room is open air and very breezy!
